Agreed, when I used it I always cleaned the rifle ASAP, never an issue for me. Some don't think its a big deal to clean after using pyrodex an pay the price of ruining their guns.

Triple 7 is more forgiving and a lot easier to cleanup for me. I don't get a crud ring with my White rifles with the bigger bores and can shoot multiple times without swabbing and #11 caps. In fact no swabbing is needed just shoot till your done. Tighter bores with 209 primer are another story, so I can understand the crud ring frustrations, been there.
